About the journal
Scope of the Journal
For the purposes of TOCL, the field of computational logic consists of all uses of logic in computer science. This area has a great tradition in computer science. Several researchers who earned the ACM Turing award have also contributed to this field, namely Edgar Codd (relational database systems), Stephen Cook (complexity of logical theories), Edsger W. Dijkstra, Robert W. Floyd, Tony Hoare, Amir Pnueli, and Dana Scott (program logics, program derivation and verification, programming languages semantics), Robin Milner (interactive theorem proving, concurrency calculi, and functional programming), and John McCarthy (functional programming and logics in AI).
Logic continues to play an important role in computer science and has permeated several of its areas, including artificial intelligence, computational complexity, database systems, and programming languages.
The Editorial Board of this journal seeks and hopes to attract high-quality submissions in all the above-mentioned areas of computational logic so that TOCL becomes the standard reference in the field.
Both theoretical and applied papers are sought. Submissions showing novel use of logic in computer science are especially welcome.
The following areas are currently covered by the members of the Editorial Board. They may change as the field evolves. In particular, submissions on the semantic aspects of the mentioned topics are welcome.
- Automated Deduction
- Automata and Temporal Logic
- Automated Verification
- Concurrency Calculi and Tools
- Constraint Programming
- Finite Model Theory and Complexity of Logical Theories
- Functional Programming and Lambda Calculus
- Nonmonotonic Reasoning and Answer Sets
- Logical Aspects of Computational Complexity
- Logical Aspects of Databases
- Logical Aspects of Knowledge Representation, Logic of Geometry, Physics, and Other Commonsense Domains
- Logic and Machine Learning
- Logic Programming
- Logics of Uncertainty
- Modal Logic, Epistemic Logic, Dynamic Logic, Logic and Games
- Model Checking
- Program Development and Verification
- Program Specification
- Proof Theory
- Term Rewriting Systems
- Type Theory and Logical Frameworks
Instructions to Authors
Submission Information
Submissions, refereeing, and all correspondence will be conducted by email.
Submissions longer than 50 pages in the ACM style file format are discouraged for the simple reason that TOCL publishes only 800 pages per year. The authors of such submissions, if they are accepted, will be asked to put part of the material in an electronic appendix.
The preferred form of submission is by posting the paper first at the Computing Research Repository (CoRR) and subsequently sending the archive identifier by email to the appropriate area editor with a copy to acm-tocl@cs.utexas.edu (see Submission via CoRR for the benefits of this form of submission).
The submissions to CoRR are publically available one day after the posting. The Postscript files are stored in CoRR as gzipped files. So, unless your browser is reconfigured appropriately, to download papers posted in CoRR you need to save each Postscript file as a .gz file and then gunzip it.
An alternative form of submission consists of sending two email messages, the first one with the information containing the title, the author(s), and the abstract of the submission, and the second one with the Postscript or PDF file. Both emails should be sent to the appropriate area editor with a copy to acm-tocl@cs.utexas.edu.
Paper submissions instead of the second email (five copies, to the Editor-in-Chief) are also acceptable, but their handling may be delayed.
The submitted manuscripts should not be published or simultaneously submitted to another journal or to a conference. Full versions of important, published, conference papers are welcome. Upon acceptance of an article by the journal, the author(s) will be asked to transfer copyright of the article to the ACM.
To ensure timely processing of the submissions, whenever a paper needs to be revised, the authors will be asked to prepare the revised version within six months of receiving the reviews.
